The best exercise for the heart is lifting people up.
Every dollar you give goes directly toward supporting our mission.
Thanks to the dedication of our volunteers and separate funding for our administrative costs, your entire donation helps meet the urgent needs of those we serve. Your donation keeps lights on, prevents evictions, and puts food on the table. Your donation tides people in need over the rough patches in life and allows them to live with dignity.
$100 – A $100 gift helps us provide essential, protein-rich foods like chicken, ground beef, tuna, and peanut butter—nourishing our guests with the building blocks for strength and wellness.
$500 –A $500 gift supports our rent & utility fund—helping prevent eviction or utility shut-offs for the elderly on fixed incomes or families in crisis. Your generosity meets urgent needs exactly where they are.
$1,000 – A gift of $1,000 can provide a full month’s supply of hygiene items for all 900 of our monthly guests. That’s 900 individuals with access to essentials that support health, dignity, and confidence—thanks to you.
$5,000 – $10,0000 – A gift of $5,000 to $10,000 can be truly transformational. It may provide tuition for someone eager to learn a new skill and achieve self-sufficiency, cover months of rent for a family navigating an ongoing medical crisis, or meet other urgent, high-impact needs that restore stability and hope.
Other Ways To Give
Designate Your Impact
Your monetary donation can be designated for general guest support or directed toward a cause close to your heart—whether it’s helping single mothers, providing hygiene supplies to keep families healthy, or offering assistance with utilities, rent, food, or other essential needs.
Monthly Donations
Your monthly gifts allow us to have critically needed funds always available to help our guests.
Give In Memory of a Loved One
Honor the life of someone special with a gift to the Center. Your donation will help meet critical needs in our community, and we will send a personalized card to their family to let them know a meaningful gift was made in their memory.
Material Donations
At The Sister Isaac Center, we do not subscribe to the idea that “something is better than nothing.” Our mission is rooted in treating every guest with dignity and respect. We ask that donated items reflect that same care—if it’s not something you would offer to your own mother, sister, or loved one, it’s not something we should offer to our guests.
